[THIN] Re: Show Clock on XenApp 4.5/Server 2003

Hi Adam,

 

I’ve been using that script and method on all deployments for years, and it works a treat.

 

However, you need to understand that it won’t change for the first login, or after you have deleted their profile….only on the second login. This is because the explorer.exe shell has already started, and initialized itself, so the registry changes will have no effect until the next time it starts. It’s extremely difficult to get in and do stuff before explorer.exe initializes. You can test this by killing the explorer.exe process and starting a new one.

 

Cheers,

Jeremy.

Subject: [THIN] Show Clock on XenApp 4.5/Server 2003

 

I am beyond frustrated now. 

 

I have been trying for 3 days now to show the clock for a published desktop.  In my GPO, I have made sure to disable the choices to hide the clock and hide notification area (systray).

 

I have tried various reg hacks, to no avail.  I finally stumbled upon an old posting from Jeff Durbin on 2003 in which he posted a script file which is then referenced by usrlogon.cmd.  This still failed to work.

 

After further research another posting from Jeremy Saunders in 2007 referenced adding the following to the usrlogon.cmd:

 

cscript "%systemroot%\system32\SetTaskBarOptions.vbs" //Nologo

 

This has also failed to work.

 

Can anyone please advise?
